updates, thoughts, and artists I enjoy
It’s been a while and I apologize. I’ve been caught up with work, testing out shirts for Crown Skateboards, making jams, and turning 24. First and foremost, was a blog post from the great Neil Gaiman about stem cell research. This is a topic I’m all for expanding, researching, and turning around the Bush administration laws against.
If you’d like to, read this google doc about what’s happening with Stem Cell Research and the National Institute of Health: http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dd5vs2xt_0hkwp6xd8
Should you want to express your opinion on stem cell research, say it loud: http://nihoerextra.nih.gov/stem_cells/add.htm
(the link to Neil’s post is here as well. )
Secondly, I’ve started following the updates of Urban Sketchers. I have always had an immense fascination with other peoples’ sketchbooks and seeing how other artists sketch, doodle, etc. Check it out, I’m in love with it and enjoy most of the sketchers who post.
I’ve also been checking out the new stuff James Greene has been working on over at Valuistics, and really digging the Road Window series. Check it out!
And a few update related notes… I’m still waiting on some sweet new interviews to show up in my inbox, as soon as I get them back they’ll be up! As I said before I’ll be expanding the blog to food as well. We’re in the process of testing jams and recipes to possibly sell at RAM. Last weekend we made Orange Strawberry Preserves which turned out splendidly! A little Cointreau added so much flavor and body to it. I’ll start blogging some of my favorite recipes as well as reinvented, healthier ones as I make a rather large life change involving eating locally and tremendously better than I ever have. But that is for another post.
Enjoy the week and this cool weather we’re having!






Yay, glad to see an update
I’m excited to hear that you’re experimenting with foodstuffs.
